I Sit Down When I Pee
As we look into the rearview mirror of time and watch the previous decade fade into history, we look to the road ahead, and with the virtue of hindsight, may be fit to wonder what it was that culturally defined the 'teensies', and more importantly, what it is that we should have in the trailer towing behind us, to bring into the new decade [discard car analogy here]. There are many fit answers to this question, but one obvious one may be that which is best summarised as the MeToo movement. Men have been put on notice in a very real and public way, for all the blunder and bluster with which they move through the world. From the grotesque to the mildly annoying, male-centric behaviour has appropriately been put under review, and I, a fellow man, would politely like to submit my own gripe to be put under review here also. And that is the idea that has cultivated within our culture that men and boys ought to stand up when they pee. In the following paragraphs I will be outlining two key arguments in advocation for a sitting down urination protocol, with sanitation and basic courtesy as the prime and most important reason, and comfort as its secondary.

Or even burn out form overwhelm and too much work while employed prior.

5 Reasons To Walk Barefoot More Often
